Rescue Remedies for Home & Garden Pests!



It's summertime and we're out in droves knee deep in dirt, tangled in the hose, watching our gardens grow.  Happy homeowners and gardeners across the nation have bravely gone outside battling creeping, crawling, flying pests and despite all of that, life is still good in the garden...

Save My Sanity Essential Oil Blends!




Some days you just need a little help...

One of my favorite uses for essential oils is stress management!  Most days a little dab will do me, some days I need a whole layering strategy.  The fact that I can call the shots on how much or how little I use is one of the things I love best about essential oils.  By choosing a natural alternative, I get to listen to my body and respond rather than follow a standard pharmaceutical protocol.

Allergies, Inflammation & the Power of Lavender, Lemon & Peppermint Essential Oils





Allergies and inflammation often go hand in hand.  Your body is fighting something be it an infection, a toxin, an allergen, a food or the stress response.  Somehow, it redirects its hostile attack on your joints, your brain, your thyroid, your gut, your skin or sometimes your entire body.

In nature's medicine cabinet there exists a powerful selection of pure essential oils that when combined create a natural antihistamine.  The simple pure plant essence of Lavender, Lemon and Peppermint together have the ability to step in and cool down body inflammation resulting from the body's allergic response.  This is hugely important information!

Dirty Feet Scrub for Sandal Weary Feet!



Here we go!  Summer is here and feet everywhere are about to log many miles in sandals and flip flops!  Did you ever stop to think about what your heels look like after the end of a long day running around half barefoot?  Yeah, me too!




We've already chatted about cracked heel prevention {Here}, now it's time to address keeping heels *clean* as well as soft.


The beauty of this scrub, besides being effective, cheap and nice smelling is that it's so easy to use!  Keep an unbreakable container in the shower at the ready so you can scrub your feet anytime you need to.




The Mobile Heath and Wellness Kit


Whether you're at work, carpooling or road trippin going mobile with your essential oils is always a good idea!

I almost consider myself a road warrior I drive so much.  Truth be told, all the windshield time is mostly by choice but I love it, my car is my "wings", and my mobile pharmacy.

Geranium & Lavender Organic Baby Powder




I think I've been asked 100 times if I had any baby powder in the house and 100 times the answer has been "nope sorry"!  I stopped buying baby powder a long time ago.  Why? ... it's the talc, a known carcinogen. 

Ok, I've known for some time there were options to make my own without that dastardly ingredient but one can only make so much DIY stuff, oi!  However, apparently people still want and use baby powder so, I give us...

talc ~ free baby powder
now we can say yes & feel good about it
